Cons Changing defaults is not easy (LET ME CHANGE THE DEFAULT ZOOM PLEASE), finding certain things on the ribbon tabs is not intuitive. Needs API/SDK support.Measuring function needs to be able to snap to angles.Watermark functions could be better. I'd like to see watermarks that only when printed, or that show the date printed.

Pros this has easy bates stamping/ complete redaction/ meta data scrubbing Cons Nuance has been sold to Kofax - Nuance was easy to reload if you somehow uninstalled - easy right?

Pros What I like the most about this software is how easy it is to convert the PDFs to other formats such as doc and xls, it is such a helpful software that has so many of adobe features and is so much cheaper. Cons It has the same issue as other pdf converters: if the pdf has been signed or have a watermark it messes up the conversion in the word document, I would love if you could select an area to skip.

Review Source LC Linda C. Administrative Assistant Aviation & Aerospace Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best PDF Software I have used " March 26, 2019 5.0 It has been instrumental in transitioning to paperless for all of our incoming purchase orders.

Pros It is better than the free Adobe and less expensive than paid version of Adobe. Cons Sometimes editing is complicated or doesnt work like it should. Its very hard to find the proper download versions from their website system. Review Source JS Jeff S. Senior Desktop Analyst Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Very Good product at a great price." September 15, 2017 5.0 Lower cost replacement for nearly anything that Adobe PDF can/will do. Users pickup using it pretty quickly, which is good for me. Pros This product has nearly all the same features as higher priced competitors but at a more reasonable cost. Even users without much experience will be able to figure out most functions as a lot of the basic daily functions are one-click. Cons On rare occasion we run into issues with some advanced documents made in Adobe not working, or working but not correctly. There is no helping this, but it could be a con if your converting from heavy Adobe brand to another PDF product. Currently no mobile app version may be a con for some as well.

Nuance hit the mark perfectly for Business and individual use Cons I would like to be a re-seller, to offer this to my end-users Review Source razakou B. freelancer Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "pdf files editor software" February 26, 2023 5.0 Pros this software is one of witch i used to make pdf documents ediditing with succes Cons the software doesn't offer other kind powerful tools Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Psychotherapist and Counsellor Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A good alternative to Adobe" February 18, 2018 4.0 Being able to view and edit PDF documents; this is something that it has taken me a while to find a good software alternative to Adobe. The product isn't perfect but it is very functional. Pros Power PDF Advanced is useful software that i now use for all my PC-based PDF needs. With it I can easily view PDFs and edit them as well. I comes with a good range of features, and I think you'll be surprised by the wide range of things that it can do. Cons Unfortunately, there is something in the design language of this software that just leaves me feeling confused. Even though I can usually do all the things I need to do in this product, it can sometimes take a while to work out how. Review Source SM Suri M. Director, Internal Audit Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Nuance Review" December 18, 2018 5.0 Our work requires us to obtain documents in multiple formats, document the purpose on the face of these documents, annotate significant part of these, combine files for use within our workpapers and present a single file for end review. The most convenient way to perform this is to convert the documents to PDF, annotate and join. Nuance fits this need perfectly. It is an easy to use product that is intuitive and makes our daily slog that much easier. Highly recommend! Pros I use Nuance on a daily basis and the ease of use of this product is amazing. Ability to create PDF's, combine, annotate and all of this, in an intuitive fashion makes this product super efficient. Cons Lack of a mobile platform to open and edit PDF's on the go.
